You heard them, we have to watch the fucking shit out of this tourney. Even though I'm pretty sure their studio audience will be impressive, I just hope they don't expect the foreign online viewers to be in the same numbers as SC2 tournaments. However, with the korean online viewers I think the numbers could be quite comparable. Also, I'm worried that they invited YellOw who doesn't even play BW anymore, which makes it seem more like some kind of an all-star fun event, instead of a serious tournament with best players playing. But anyways, I'm still quite excited about it and I hope this is just first out of many. 2014 is indeed starting strong for BW. | ||

I would understand Yellow vs Boxer, or Xellos or Firebathero, but against afreecans? | ||

Not to mention you needed to pay to watch basically anything (ok, like 4x3 pixel res. VODs were free). It's nice to see another tournament in BW. But I doubt they would have done it without 'something else' failing. With or without them, thanks to Sonic (and the viewers of course) Korean BW is still going strong. And Tasteless commentating...of course, if you want to hear that P will build some Gateways...eventually. have you even heard tasteless commentating BW? he actually knows it very well, given how much he's played it back in the day. | ||

Kudos to GOM for this, hope it all turns out well and that they will produce more BW events in the future. And I also hope BW continues to live on, thrive and maybe even grow again. | ||

There were several threads about quality and comparsions of the casters of BW, but I'd have to necro them. This question also derails the thread so I'd be happy to argue about it in form of PM's or whatever. But I'll say this-his commentary is very noob friendly. With all the positives and also negatives attached to it. So I'd take Sayle over him Anytime[gm] :-) | ||

I remember when Tasteless said it was an awesome player for porn as well when he was co-casting with lilsusie. Awkward and funny as fuck, lilsusie couldn't believe he said that on livestream. And the times when a dead stream would put GOM Player on repeat. Good times! Let's go BW! | ||
